This paper addressed the application of new hydrophobic synthesized calcium oxide (CaO) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) nanofluids to low permeability carbonate porous media. Crude oil and plugs were selected from one of oil reservoirs in the west of Iran. The main goal of this paper is comparing the results of improving water-oil relative permeability parameters in low permeability plugs...

let r be a commutative ring with non-zero identity and m be a unital r-module. then the concept of quasi-secondary submodules of m is introduced and some results concerning this class of submodules is obtained

the prediction of porosity is achieved by using available core and log data; however, the estimationof permeability is limited to the scare core data. hence, porosity and saturation data through theframework of flow units can be used to make an estimation of reservoir permeability. the purposeof this study is to predict the permeability of a carbonate gas reservoir by using physical-basedempiri...

due to availability of proper materials in landfills (at most parts of iran especially in kahrizak) and also less expenditure of this liner in comparison with other liners it can be count as an acceptable choice. different studies imply that one of the most important factors for soil liner selection is local conditions and also liner compatibility with generated leachate in studied site. hydrau...

Abstract In this study, we carried out reactivation potential analysis of discontinuities revealed from four exploration boreholes penetrating heavily faulted and folded Upper Carboniferous rock strata the Ruhr region. We performed study based on notion that slip is controlled by ratio shear to effective normal stresses acting a pre-existing plane weakness in prevailing stress field configurati...

Fractured and weathered crystalline basement units below erosional unconformities potentially represent unconventional reservoirs for georesources (oil, mineral water). The reservoir properties characteristics strongly depend on secondary processes connected to the local structural alteration/weathering history. Here we present results of in–situ field quantification mechanical (uniaxial compre...

objective(s):the objective of this study was to find a stable microemulsion vehicle for transdermal delivery of ibuprofen to improve the skin permeability. materials and methods: microemulsion was prepared using different sorts of oils, surfactants and co-surfactants. pseudo-ternary phase diagrams were used to evaluate the microemulsion domain. the effects of oleic acid and surfactant mixture o...

improving barrier properties through the use of nanocomposites is an important area of research, especially for the food packaging industry. in this work, titanium dioxide (tio2 )/low density poly ethylene (ldpe) nanocomposites were synthesized as the oxygen barrier layers through the co-extrusion process. the oxygen permeability of the nanocomposite with 4% of tio2 decreased for about 16% comp...

Positive coupling effect in gas condensate reservoirs is assessed through a pure theoretical approach. A combination of linear stability analysis and long bubble approximation is applied to describe gas condensate coupled flow and relative permeability, thereof. The role of capillary number in gas condensate flow is clearly expressed through closed formula for relative permeability. While the m...
